Cumbernauld celebrates soldiers

A proud group of more than 300 veterans converged on Cumbernauld recently to celebrate the town's first ever Armed Forces Day.

It began with a giant parade that saw steadfast ex-soldiers, sailors and airmen and women making their way through Central Way back to their headquarters at the Royal British Legion.

A salute followed and displays took place which gave a glimpse into life within the armed forces.
